According to national media reports, Pennsylvania’s 2025 budget deal caused the state to “exit” RGGI. Media coverage also used the words “leave,” “quit” and “pull out” to describe Pennsylvania’s abandonment of RGGI. Pennsylvania, though, wasn’t actually a member of RGGI.  In 2019, then-Gov. Tom Wolf issued an executive order for his administration to adopt regulations consistent with ... Read more

Alinsky got the idea (probably) from Machiavelli, or perhaps Churchill, or the common collective unconscious.

Six elected Democrat legislators who are former military officers with privileged or intelligence backgrounds are eroding our American military chain-of-command culture and values by issuing scurrilous and mutinous comments.  Inciting rebellion by urging US service men and women to refuse “illegal” orders, “illegal” orders which they never identified, is punishable in any country’s military, especially ...
